New comment by AlexDragusin in "File Pilot: A file explorer built for speed with a modern, robust interface"

AlexDragusin — Wed, 19 Feb 2025 11:42:41 +0000

The best part of this is the typing for a system command once you right click a file, helps a lot to quickly get to items I need to run on the file. Microsoft should done something like this in W11 instead of the shitty extra menu nonsense and many other annoyances on W11.

Microsoft, watch out for "garage" people like vjekoslav here.
